      I am happy getting physical products since they can’t be changed and I own them. Nothing digital ever again

      DnD Beyond is laying all the ground work for full enshitification as they do a soft push away from 5e to whatever the fuck live service subscription and micro transaction model they’ll be pursuing.

        They’ll probably try the “blind bag” monetization of minis again… or worse, do “blind bags” of subscription model virtual minis with log-in bonus and “battle pass” shit. cap-think

          Yep, they’re trying to create their own virtual tabletop, which will fit perfectly with that.

          At some point start introducing power creep so players want to purchase access to new classes and feats.

            At some point start introducing power creep so players want to purchase access to new classes and feats.

            4th edition already pulled that grift, making each additional book full of Glowing Eyed Generic Epic People a bit more power-creeped than the last.
